Carbon Fiber Sizing
Carbon Fiber Sizing is an aqueous resin emulsion that coated on carbon fiber to create chemical bonds on the fiber surface to bond the fiber and resin firmly, thereby improving the overall performance of the carbon fiber/resin composite.
Those modifiers currently supplied by IMT FORMOSA New Materials that can be used in the following resins:
Item No.: GA-024
Waterborne epoxy based carbon fiber sizing
GA-024 is a water-based epoxy sizing for carbon fiber. Mainly used on the surface of carbon fiber to provide good protection and workability. GA-024 uses a suitable ratio of high/low molecular weight epoxy as the composition of the sizing agent, which provide carbon fiber with better workability, such as bundling and anti-friction properties. At the same time, GA-024 can enhance the bonding strength with the fiber/resin interface. GA-024 have functional groups with high chemical reactivity, which can form a chemical bond with the surface of the carbon fiber to further improve the interface strength of composite.

Item No.: WVE-020
Waterborne VE-based carbon fiber sizing
WVE-020 is based on vinyl ester resin (VE), emulsified with non-ionic surfactant. In addition, in order to enhance the interlayer strength of the carbon fiber and resin, WVE-020 is blended with a coupling agent. This coupling agent can form a chemical bond with the surface-modified carbon fiber; at the same time, it can also produce a chemical graft reaction with the functional group of the VE resin. Thereby, improving the interface strength of the carbon fiber/sizing/matrix resin.
TDS-WVE020
Item No.: WPP-051A/B
Waterborne PP-based carbon fiber sizing
WPP-051A/B is a two-component waterborne carbon fiber sizing, which designed to be made into the PP/Carbon fiber composite. WPP-051 has been optimized with a special design formula, which can form a chemical bond with the surface-treated carbon fiber, and meanwhile, produce a chemical graft reaction with the matrix PP substrate, which is effective Improve the strength of composite.
TDS-WPP051
Item No.: WPC-036
Waterborne PC-based carbon fiber sizing
WPC-036 is a water-based carbon fiber sizing. This product is designed to make composite materials with polycarbonate resin (PC). WPC-036 is made of water-based resin with interface active agent and a variety of special additives. WPC-036 is mixed with a unique coupling agent, which can form a chemical bond with the surface-treated carbon fiber, and has good compatibility with the resin matrix. The polymer chains are entangled to improve the interface and the overall mechanical performance of composite materials.
